The New School’s Schwartz Center for Economic Policy Analysis invites you to the Heilbroner Lecture featuring Dr. Ellora Derenoncourt, Assistant Professor of Economics at Princeton University and the founder and faculty director for the Program for Research on Inequality. Dr. Derenoncourt will deliver the Heilbroner Lecture on the evolution of racial inequality in the United States, its consequences, and its historical determinants.
Dr. Derenoncourt’s research focuses on labor economics, economic history, and the study of inequality. Recent studies have included the northern backlash against the Great Migration, the role of minimum wages in racial earnings inequality, and the long-run evolution of the racial wealth gap.
